I want to read and comment and all that, but I've been feeling crappy all day. Then tonight I figured it out. I have a motherfucking UTI. I think it has been years since I had one and guess what? It still sucks.

Also, I am out of Halloween candy.

Anyone turning the lights off and yelling at kids to get off their lawn tomorrow?

I have had lots and lots of UTIs and they ALWAYS suck. :( Sorry for the shit. We get very few trick or treaters, so we never run out of candy. :( Tell them to come down here!

Ugh. I hope you feel better soon. I had a lot of them for a while there, found homeopathic remedies far more effective than antibiotics (which gave me a yeast infection, and didn't work).

Sorry you're not feeling well - hope you feel better soon. Drinking plenty of cranberry juice apparently helps with UTIs.

The only people who do trick or treating round here are the local teenage yobs who come round demanding money with menaces, so we tend to cower in the dark pretending we're not at home every year. Bonfire Night (5 November) is much bigger over here - time to start making toffee apples...

Ugh! How I hate a UTI! It's been years for me too, and I hope to never have one again.

Yes, we typically turn off the lights and yell at the kids to get off of the lawn. Mostly because our dogs go berzerk everytime the doorbell rings. It's bad enough with the kids walking down the street! So bahumbug, but whatever!

Feel better!

ugh. they suck! I've been lucky for the last few years, but I think that's because I had the defunct nubbin of a kidney removed... I used to mainline cranberry juice & evebn got the cranberry pills which seemed to do something.

We get over 200 kids as we live in a decent neighborhood & parents drive their kids up from the ghetto hoods to trick or treat safetly here. I got the crappy candy this year because more
& more I'm seeing older kids just out for trouble. And now that I have the pumpkin I don't feel like messing with it & plan to run out early!

Infertility makes Halloween stupid. Or who knows, maybe it's stupid when you have 20 kids, and we just don't know yet. Either way, an entire holiday devoted to other peoples children is hard. Having a UTI makes it harder. Being out of candy is scandalous. Hope things look up soon!

oh that sucks!
I am hoping we don't get many trick or treaters because oh my fucking gawd do I want to dive into the bowl of snickers and skittles.

So sorry for that nasty little UTI, they suck bad man.

My dad shuts his lights off. Although by the looks of his yet to be completed front yard, the kids are proably scared shitless to walk up anyway. His house would have been one of the ones we skipped back in the day.

Get better soon girl!

When I was in high school I had a string of UTI's for like 3 months and not only was that the most glamorous thing ever, but holy balls did that SUCK ASS.

Feel better, yo.

oh...UTIs SUCK ASS! Too bad you don't live near me- I had to work, and my husband bought 10 bags of candy. He had no clue how much to give b/c in his 33 years he has never been home for trick or treaters. ;) I hope you are feeling better.

Feel better soon! I'm having difficulty commenting, too. But I'm thinking about you.

Is your UTi gone now? I hope so!

I hate those motherfucking uti's. Bitches.

:)

kate said...

Let me send you some candy. Please.

I feel your pain with the UTI. I had them monthly when I was a young kid, and then suddenly, I stopped getting them, and I haven't had one since (knock wood), though I live in fear of ever peeing fire like that again. So sorry dude. May your pee be pain-free SOON!

I hope you are well healed from your UTI. Just letting you know I am thinking about you and hope you are okay!

Um, is it safe to assume the UTI is out? I sure hope so. Hope you're well girl. xoxoxo
